rewrote some old depression lyrics so here they are

Tell me how you feel dear 
Do you think someone cares that you're here?
It doesn't matter what you say 
No one will listen to you babe
The struggle of being born without money 
Your sweet words are bitter unlike honey 
We will be forgotten by this world 
We mean nothing, nothing at all 

Can't sugar coat it 
There's no happiness 
We want to exist, yes
We're ravenous 
But who do we live for?
Is it ourselves?

If I'm honest then I'm wrong 
Unless it coincides with their intentions 

We need some truth, you know 
It's all just too fake 
Can't say what I think because 
That's always a mistake 
But how hard will I push my limit?
How far can I get 
If I pretend I'm living 
When in reality I'm not at all?

Look at me 
Show me something real
I want to hear you speak
Darlin' how do you feel?
Talk to me 
Tell me what's the big deal
If you hide how you feel
Are you less real?

Tell me how you feel dear 
Do you think someone cares that you're here?
It doesn't matter what you say 
No one will listen to you babe
The struggle of being born without money 
Your sweet words are bitter unlike honey 
We will be forgotten by this world 
We mean nothing, nothing at all 

I am, I am, I am so fake
Or am I not? Or am I not?
I am, I am, I am myself
Or am I not? Or am I not?

Isn't love a thing we all crave?
Is it real or do I need a getaway?
Isn't it so beautiful to feel this way?
Only as long as it's a woman and a man
I'm so tired from my inner struggle
Ahhh, I don't really understand 

You're as sweet as sugar 
But as equally fake 
You just say what you want 
"Life is what you make" 
What other lies can you spread
Among those who barely breathe?
Do you even have a sincerity of some sort?
Or are you just bored?

Look at me 
Show me something real
I want to hear you speak
Darlin' how do you feel?
Talk to me 
Tell me what's the big deal
If you hide how you feel
Are you less real?

I am
So tired of myself 
I can't
Take this much
They all force me
Tough love, fake love, it's not true but 

You're like jam
Baby take away your sweet
Your sweet sweet talk that won't knock me off of my feet

I am myself, I am
Oh baby when I walk the street 
I know I'm me and that's it 

I'll tell you how I feel dear 
Do you think I care that I'm here?
I don't really have too much to say 
Aren't I just a shut in babe?
Everything revolves around money 
Your sweet words are bitter unlike honey 
I will be forgotten by this world 
I mean nothing, nothing at all 

Look at me 
Show me something real
I want to hear you speak
Darlin' how do you feel?
Talk to me 
Tell me what's the big deal
If you hide how you feel
Are you less real?
